RDo not stop vehicle while immersed in
water, and do not shut off the engine.
Tires
RCheck the tread depth and maintain
specified tire inflation pressure. A placard
with the recommended tire inflation
pressures is located on the driver’s door B-
pillar (Y page 229).
RIn sandy soil, drive at a steady speed as
allowed by conditions. This helps
overcome the vehicle rolling resistance
and reduces the likelihood of the vehicle
sinking into the ground.
RCheck tires for possible damage and
remove foreign objects.
RDo not initiate jumps with the vehicle. It
interrupts the forward momentum of the
vehicle.
RReplace missing valve caps.
Rims
RAlways drive onto slopes with the engine
running and the vehicle in gear.
RDented or bent rims can cause tire inflation
pressure loss and damage the tire beads.
For this reason, check and, if necessary,
change rims before driving off-road.
RDo not shift automatic transmission into
neutral position N.
G Warning!
Vehicle tool kit
Do not reduce the tire inflation pressure
before driving through sand. However, if you
do so, remember to correct the tire inflation
pressure before continuing your trip. Driving
with reduced tire inflation pressure increases
the risk of losing control of the vehicle and
rolling over.
RCheck if the jack (Y page 272) is
functional.
RAlways take the vehicle tool kit, a strong
tow rope, a shovel and a small plank (to put
under the jack on sandy soil) with you.

If the engine oil level warning lamp comes
on while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe
location or as soon at is safe to do so.
Check the engine oil level.

The engine oil level warnings should not be
ignored. Extended driving with the symbol
